Re: [AN1x] Re: Digital popping noise problem with AN1x

2002-03-03 by Phil

Hi Neil,

I purchased my AN1x around three years ago and within a month I was back at
the store complaining about the snap, crackle, and pops - only to be told it
was a known issue, and nothing could be done. (I've since learnt it's likely
a matter of an OS update - see archive, or Jon's advice).

One thing that seemed to be apparent is the crackles were related to patches
I'd recently been playing with. From a few tests, it appeared that if my
AN1x was switched off while still audible (such as the long sustain of a
string patch, or an ongoing arp or step sequence performance), the patch
became corrupted during power down.

No-one on the list has confirmed my observations, but by ensuring the synth
is silent before shutting down, I haven't haven't experienced a crackle
since.

Coincidence? Who knows, but worth a try.

Phil

Many thanks, Jon.

I should have looked a bit harder!

Looks like I'm just unlucky. I'm going to keep an eye on it and hope it
doesn't get any worse.

Cheers,

Neil.
